Christmas Wishes Candy Pocket Tags with Cheryl Walker

1:30 AM 3 Comments
Hello everyone, and Happy Friday to you all! Today I wanted to share 5 of 14 tags I created using the BEAUTIFUL Cheery Lynn Designs Dies. I had a blast making these, and created them to bring to our Doll Club Christmas Party, and everyone LOVED them!!! :)
Of course I had to use the Beautiful Christmas Poinsettia Strip die from Cheery Lynn to create my gorgeous flowers. They were cut using a striped metallic and regular design paper print. I also did my favorite Glass Flower technique on these, as it makes them sturdy and beautiful :)  I love using the wreath strip die, as it cuts the perfect amount for each pocket tag, and that was 7.

Cheery Lynn Designs Dies Used:
Cheery Lynn Mirror CABD-74

To create my tags I started with Cheery Lynn's Pierced Stacker 3 XL21 using the largest die in this set for the main tag and design paper. If you are creating 5 tags you would need to cut 8 greens to give you 5 entire pieces, and then cut the others in half to create the pocket, leaving 1 half leftover. Design paper pieces were cut using the same die.  Be sure to add your design paper before adding your pocket.

Next I cut my tag, oval , poinsettias , holly, and wreath branches and had them all prepped and ready to decorated my pocket.  You can also use ric rac, or trip or whatever to border the pocket.  Then add ribbon to embellish with a bow. I did add some half backed pearls to my flowers too. For these 5 Pocket tags I did add some vintage ric rac to the pocket. On the Oval Classic, it was cut in white, stamped sentiment in black, and then added some red dots around the edges.

I really had a lot of fun decorating these up, and adding some fun Christmas candy to each one. The pockets were easy and came together quickly. Love using Cheery Lynn dies as they make for some beautiful crafts!!!

 I hope you enjoyed my post for today, as I truly enjoyed sharing! Thank you so much for looking!!!

I hope you enjoyed my post for today!
Hugs to all,

Poinsettia Christmas Wishes by Cheryl Walker

2:30 AM 1 Comments
 Hello everyone, Cheryl here and I am super EXCITED to be sharing my first post with you all today. My Poinsettia Christmas Wishes Easel card (card base & layers) was created using all Cheery Lynn Dies!  Hope you enjoy my post for today :)
I absolutely LOVE making Christmas cards, and I love how easy this card came together for today's post. Basically you just cut and layer all pieces and I have posted each one below for you. Super fun! The only pieces that have a different technique would be my Poinsettia flowers and the Holly Leaves, but I do love doing the glass technique on those too :)

Layer 1-the card base I used Cheery Lynn's Pierced Sacker #3 XL-21 die set. I cut out in white card stock 1 piece using the largest die in this set, and then folded in half another piece to cut for the easel part of my card today.
Layer 2- Circle layers I cut my 2 design paper(one for outside, and one for inside) circles from the LPC4 Circle Pierce and Cut tool -LG Silver Pierce Tool(circle 4")
Layer 3- Pierced Stacker #2 I used the 4 1/8" x 3 1/8" for the layer 3 cut in a green polka dot paper for the outside card layer. I also cut one for the inside it is cut using the 2 1/2" x 1 7/8"
Layer 4- M-7 Oval Classic -SM Silver Stacker Layer 8 or the Christmas striped design paper on the front.
Last layer 5- is the B682 Quadrafoil Tag cut in a green embossed polka dot card stock, and then a white card stock for the seniment.
Poinsettias cut in polka dot design paper using Cheery LynnB324 Poinsettia Strip die. I then used some ink to distress the edges of the flowers and then my Glass Flower Technique. Lastly adding a gold pearl to the center of each poinsettia. The leaves are from the Cheery Lynn Designs Christmas Bell 7 die.

Happy Thoughts...with Corina Finley

3:30 AM 3 Comments
Hello!

I just want to start off by letting you all know that I will be taking a leave of absense. I need to focus on my family and my family's health.

With that said, let's get to today's card! 

I die-cut the Whimsical Tree of Life (I am in love with the new Whimsical Tree of Life from the June Release! It will be great for all season themed cards!) from cardstock and heat embossed with Vintage Copper Frantage embossing powder.
I cut the A2 Frames Rectangular for the base from light weight chipboard and heat embossed the edges with Copper Vintage Frantage embossing powder. I matted the Lined pattern paper to the chipboard and used the A2 Frames Rectangular in one size smaller to cut it.

From Kraft cardstock, I cut the Pierced Stacker #3 and Scalloped Oval. I inked the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. I then cut my green pattern paper with a smaller die from each of the two sets and matted them to the larger Kraft die-cuts.

I stamped my Happy Thoughts sentiment onto the Paris Signs 4, heat embossed with Copper embossing powder and trimmed the die-cut. Inked the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. To accent, I added the green rhinestones to the sentiment and corners.

You're the Best by Jenny Alia

3:30 AM 1 Comments

Hi, it's Jenny posting today with some quick cards I made using the new May Release dies.  Thank you so much for leaving all the lovely comments on my blog during the hop last week.  I also enjoyed reading the comments on the Cheery Lynn Blog about everyone's favorite die.  I thought I'd share some of my new favorites with you: the Chevron A2 Frame and the new sentiments dies.


This card was made using only three dies and it's so easy to replicate in different ways.  I cut the chevron background die in white and mounted it to an A2 top fold card.  I then colored another piece of card stock with red and pink inks and cut that with the chevron die.  I glued the colored strips into the negative areas and glitter was sprinkled on the white areas.  Below are some other examples of cards using many of the same dies. These were made for my son's teacher and assistant teachers.  The chevron can be used with or without the negative pieces.  The card on the right uses pieces from the center and left cards to create the blue and black pattern.


My eight year old daughter and I made these Birthday cards for friends.  She made the butterfly card. I helped add the glitter glue to the butterfly wings but she did the rest on her own.  The card on the left is the Chevron background from the pink strips I used on the first example card at the top of this post.


Thanks for stopping by the blog today and I hope you're having as much fun with these new dies as I am. Remember to join in the Cheery Lynn Red, White & Blue Challenge for a chance to win a $20 voucher for shopping at Cheery Lynn Designs.

Vintage Seaside by Julie Lavalette

3:30 AM 3 Comments

Hi Everyone, It's Julie here today and I am sharing my Vintage Seaside themed card with you today. 


I coloured the Globe stand with Copic pens. I then heat embossed my World with Aged Green Frantage and layered onto my Angel Wing which had been cut out in Blue Cardstock for the sea. I love the way this effect has worked with this die.



My Ships Anchor was heat embossed with a mix of Distress Powders and Verdigris Antiquities to give a rusty textured effect.

Springtime Card by Julie Lavalette

3:30 AM 5 Comments

Hi Everyone, It's Julie here. Today I am showcasing four of Cheery Lynn's new dies on my card. Let me show you how I built my layers on my 5.75 x 5.75 card.



On a length of patterned paper I placed my Curved Border set with the little pierced holes about half an inch in from the edge. I then added my cutting strip to the edge of my paper matching up with my pierced design, holding down with some low tack tape to keep in place. Inking the edges and adding on my lace strip edge.


I sprayed a little water onto my paper and gathered it into folds. I dried with my heat gun, highlighting the folds with Distress Ink. I then stitched around the edges for more detail.



You will notice my pierced stacker had the middle section cut out to fit neatly into the space available on my card and to compliment my oval doilies shape. 


On my image I coloured her dress with Distress Pens and mounted onto my doily frame. I die cut my frame in white cardstock and then pressed into my Versamark Ink pad and heat embossed some Aged Aqua Frantage powder.



My branches I shaded with Copic Pens. My Cherry Blossom was shaded with Distress Ink and a Pearl added to the centre which I coloured with Alcohol Inks.


My sweet little Blue Tit was shaded with Distress Inks and edged with a Black Fine Liner Pen around his face and a diamante added for his eye. I absolutely adore these new birds from Cheery Lynn which come in a set of four ....... a must have !

Thanks for stopping by to see my post today and good luck to everyone entering our weekly challenge.

Thoughts of You with Karen Maldonado

3:30 AM 2 Comments
Hello Cheery Lynn friends!  It's Karen here sharing a "Thoughts of You" card
in tones of teal blue, green, and yellow!


I've layered the card first by cutting the French Flair Classic Scalloped die in 
white cardstock.  Then, I followed by using the French Flair Classic dies 
in teal blue and green print papers.

I wanted that lovely Kiwi Spirt Doily to accent the layered sentiment, so
I cut it out using thick white cardstock.  By using this thicker cardstock,
it super-defines the intricate details 
of this beautiful doily even more, and adds great depth!!


Then, I stamped the sentiment onto the Oval Classic SM Silver Stacker 
using white cardstock, and layered it onto the Sentiment Tag #1 in green.  
Lastly, layered that piece onto the teal blue Sentiment Tag #2
and added two shiny pearls!

I ink distressed the flowers and leaves, making four full Tea Rose medium
and two closed Tea Rose Medium flowers and placed them on the 
top and bottom corners of the card.


List of dies used on my project:

B436 Tea Rose Medium

for a chance at a $20 gift certificate to the Cheery Lynn Designs store!

Have a wonderful day, and thanks for visiting!

Hugs & Smiles,
Karen

Easter Chicks Tutorial by Julie Lavalette

3:30 AM 4 Comments

Hi Everyone, it's Julie here today and I thought it would be nice to share an Easter card with Spring colours and these three gorgeous little Chicks from our recent CHA release.

Here are the steps on how to make it, this first photo shows the reverse side. 


Using the French Flair Scalloped die cut the largest die in Orange and Green cardstock. Cut the Orange layer in half, down the middle and attach with adhesive onto the back of your Green layer for a shadow effect around the edges.


Repeat this process using the second largest French Flair Scalloped die and Yellow and Striped Pattern Paper.


Die cut Happy Easter in Orange, Yellow and Green cardstock offsetting and adhering each layer together.


Die cut your Easter Chicks in Orange and Yellow cardstock again slightly offsetting. Lift the Yellow layer of wing slightly up. On the reverse of your Chick lightly press the point of a Black Pen into the centre of the eye. This now defines the eye area.


Die cut your Heart Oval in White Cardstock and mount Yellow card in the coordinating die cut from the Classic Ovals.


Cut out your Shasta Daisy Strip in White Cardstock and using your Craft Dauber or a small ball of cotton wool begin tapping some Scattered Straw ink into all the centres.


Once dry shape petals on a foam mat with a stylus tool. Assemble layers up to desired effect with adhesive. Finally adding a layer of Flower Soft into the Centres with adhesive.
Die cut the Leaf Strip in Green and shape leaves on a foam mat with stylus tool.


Using a square card 5"7/8 by 5"7/8 start to adhere you layers onto your card as in photograph. Adhere Happy Easter with glue onto the Oval Centre and then layer onto the card with foam pads.
Finally arranging and adhering on the Chicks, Leaves and Flowers to the card to finish.

Lace Wardrobe Style Card by Julie Lavalette

3:30 AM 5 Comments

Hi everyone, Julie here hosting the blog today. 
I thought this week I would showcase how versatile our doilies can be in making beautiful accents and patterns on our craft projects.
The Anastasia border matches the Kiwi doily die perfectly so are great to use together, especially when making a real feature with them, like I am doing with this card.


On the opening of my card you will see the border strips, I love the lace effect. You will also see my doily cut into corners and halved. I matted and layered onto papers.


My flowers were made by cutting them out in same pale green card stock as the swirls and background but I stamped a little gesso onto them and rubbed the edges too with gesso before making them up, to give a shabby feel.


The inside of my card compliments the outside and I embellished with a few pearls to finish.

Celebration Card by Julie Lavalette

Hello Everyone, it's Julie here hosting the blog today. This week I have made a card showcasing the  new release die - Pour the Wine.


I cut out my wine bottle and backed onto silver paper which I fussy cut around. I then applied lots of little gems into the centre of the flowers and a little sticker on to it. My wine glasses were cut out and I then placed a little colour core paper behind and fussy cut too, adding some bling to finish.


My rose was made with bazzill card stock and the Large Rose die.
